Creating a formula that looks for criteria in a range and searches for that combo in a row

Hello, I hope I explain this the right way.

I want to to find if a specific (row-level) combination of employee and date that exists on the first sheet also exists on the second sheet and if so, use a formula to flag the row that has the combination.

For example, if Alex and 06/16/20 exists on the first sheet, I want to create a formula that flags where Alex and 06/16/20 exists exists on the same row in the second sheet.

Thoughts?

Try something along the lines of...

=IF(COUNTIFS({Time Off Sheet Employee Column}, Employee@row, {Time Off Sheet Date Column}, [Date Column]@row) > 0, 1)
